Other Problems

• A testrun with invalid sw_product executes a testrun with sandbox-values. An error should be raised and no testrun should be executed.
• Exceptions are not handled and they hit the xmlrpc. request_sync() should always return PASS/FAIL/ERROR. nothing else.
• Incompatible worker version leaves worker in an unknown state and does not report the problem clearly.

Scheduled for 0.9 Release

Organisation, maintenance and upgrades

• Component reorg (Assess a better representation of Components in code layout. Check impact on deployment)

• Better unittest harvester (perhaps setup.py test)

• Evaluate status of dependencies (AMQP 1.0, minixsv supports Python 2.5, setuptools versus distribute etc)

Conductor

• Python APIs

• API stability

• 6Pack integration

• Automated reboot

Server

• Remove InputPlugin

• Lower level extension points on Result File Parsing

• 6Pack Integration

Not scheduled items

Security

• HTTPS XML-RPC

• AMQP connection using SSL encryption

• OTS server and worker working in user mode

• Define firewall settings for OTS server and worker

• User authentication and access rights

• Test request DDoS filter
